Episodes
  • Sand Job, Lionheart and many interviews...
    Mar 19 2024

    In this episode Marty talks about Dan Wheldon, Chris recommends some Drive to Survive episodes, and there are flying dildos.

    But first, Dan Wheldon's life and legacy is coming to the documentary Lionheart.

    Chris has watched Drive to Survive, and Marty hasn't. Is it worth a watch, and which episodes are worth your time? But both have watched Grand Tour presents Sand Job.

    In 'What has Henry Catchpole been upto this week?' it's the F.A.T Ice Race in Aspen - or Goodwood on Ice - with some bizarrely rare and special cars raised up and given studded tyres.

    For some reason, we're been drenched in interviews this month, with Ben Collins chatting with Top Gear mastermind Andy Wilman, while Dan and Andrew of The Intercooler talking really inside baseball with James May.

    However, we couldn't avoid talking about Red Bull's challenge to build a drone that can keep up with an F1 car, which may change the way we see Formula cars on the limit. It's deeply impressive and looks like a flying dildo.

  • Michael Mann's Ferrari
    Feb 7 2024

    Chris and Marty are back with a lengthy, waffly review of Michael Mann's Ferrari movie. Is it more than you can afford, pal? Listen to find out. Elsewhere in the episode, we talk about Brad Pitt's F1 movie filming at the Rolex 24 and Harry Metcalfe putting the farmer's welly into BMW's latest EV effort.

    But first, the Brad Pitt F1 film was seen filming endurance racing scenes at the Daytona 24 hours. Also Andy Wilman shared a trailer for the new Grand Tour special A Sand Job on his Instagram, which comes out Feb 16th.

    For the review, we look at Michael Mann's Ferrari.

    In 'What has Henry Catchpole been upto this week?', Henry is back in his bobble-hatted, historically focussed wheel house with the mad Lancia Delta S4 Stradale

    For his Youtube pick this week, Chris followed listening to a Smoking Tire to visiting the Vehicle Virgins Youtube channel and the McLaren Speedtail video. Marty went with Harry Metcalf's thorough review of the BMW i5 M60 X-Drive.

  • Farewell to TG and GT
    Jan 25 2024

    In this episode of the Automovie Podcast, Chris and Martin return for 2024 to remember Top Gear and the Grand Tour as both disappear from our screens, and discuss the usual news and nonsense you've come to expect from two gibbering idiots who watch too much YouTube.

    But first Chris puts his hands up and shares a mistake from the Gran Turismo review, while Marty shares his thoughts on the movie he's managed to see.

    Looming over the car landscape since the last episode has been the end of Top Gear and the Grand Tour. Also Chris Harris has written a book!

    Since our last episode Henry Catchpole has been driving the RML SWB Ferrari 250 GT tribute.

    For our new combined Youtube picks we went with TG 2 - Cars and Stripes with Jack Rix and Jethro Bovingdon bringing American car content to the Top Gear channel.

    For our channel pick, it's Driver 61, but specifically the Project Inversion series attempting to drive a formula car upside down!
